City of Edgerton, Kansas

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ

The City of Edgerton is conducting a stormwater masterplan and needs your input to evaluate potential stormwater flooding and erosion problems in the City. This comprehensive study includes an analysis of the existing stormwater collection system. We need your help to identify problem areas and determine the cause. Upon completion, the City’s engineering consultant (Olsson, Inc), will create a plan with recommendations for prioritizing infrastructure upgrades to reduce or eliminate flooding and to target future development and system expansion. We need your help to determine where flooding may occur in public areas. This does not include nuisance yard flooding or problems due to poor yard grading. The master plan will assist the City’s elected leaders in planning and budgeting for future stormwater projects.

Olsson will also be completing a stormwater system inventory over the next few months. Team members from Olsson will wear reflective vests and may be on your property collecting information about existing pipe/structure sizes and condition of the existing stormwater system. The collection will generally be done during normal business hours and Olsson employees will carry badges and other identification. If you have any questions, you can call City Hall at 913.893.6231.
